C4T#4 Summary

For my fourth Comments for Teachers, I followed Andrea Hernandez. She is a technology coordinator for K-8 in Jacksonville, Florida. Her first post was about formal education - especially in master's degrees. This was a very interesting post as she pointed out her opinion. Her second post was about using Shelfari in the classroom. In this post, she discussed the use of reading logs and the potential negative impact they can have on students and their enjoyment of reading. Shelfari is a social networking site for readers. Mrs. Hernandez feels that by promoting the social aspects of reading through sites such as Shelfari, students can really learn to enjoy reading and sharing with others. This blog was very interesting as Mrs. Hernandez shares thoughts for using technology in the classroom as well as her own thoughts regarding education in general.
